Demystifying Introductory Chemistry. Part 3: Ionization Energies, Electronegativity, Polar Bonds, and Partial Charges.
Spencer, James; And Others
Journal of Chemical Education, v73 n7 p627-31 Jul 1996
Shows how ionization energies provide a convenient method for obtaining electronegativity values that is simpler than the conventional methods. Demonstrates how approximate atomic charges can be calculated for polar molecules and how this method of determining electronegativities may lead to deeper insights than are typically possible for the previous formulations.
